Chapter 74 Kunpeng's Punishment: Seventy-Four Days of Game Making
[Player Kunpeng has been permanently banned and 980 million merit points have been recovered for illegal fraud and malicious money laundering. The remaining accounts involved have also been banned for ten years.]
After communicating with the Heavenly Dao, Yuan Yi posted this announcement on the game's homepage and played a loop of Kunpeng's actions in the game.
She originally wanted to continue her attack, but after glancing through the earth's veins, she saw that the calamity aura on Kunpeng was becoming increasingly severe. Coupled with his usual careless behavior and the 900 million merits deducted from his game account, he was now under a dark cloud and plagued by bad luck.
Then, just as they spread their wings, a sandstorm struck, turning the clear sky into a thunderstorm, and in an instant, they became a mess.
A dignified Golden Immortal is now facing obstacles in everything he does, and every attempt he makes is thwarted by unforeseen circumstances.
Yuan Yi was not surprised by this, after all, "Three Thousand Guests of the Purple Cloud" was a game she specially customized to spread the Dao in accordance with the general trend of heaven and earth, and it had been approved by the Dao Ancestor, the spokesperson of the Heavenly Dao. In a sense, it was also a project supported by the prehistoric world.
Now that Kunpeng is causing trouble right under the nose of the Heavenly Dao, ruining such a significant project, how could he expect the Heavenly Dao to give him a kind look? If Kunpeng's fate hadn't run out, he might have truly become the first Great Luo Golden Immortal in the history of the prehistoric world to choke to death on his own saliva.
Thinking of this, Yuan Yi temporarily stopped. After all, the Heavenly Dao had not yet settled the score with Kunpeng. Let Kunpeng taste the bitterness of being rejected by the Heavenly Dao first, and she would add fuel to the fire later so that Kunpeng could experience it more often.
After all, Kunpeng's lifespan is not long either.
Yuan Yi opened the event settings interface, loaded a free "Anti-Fraud Manual" in it, and truthfully wrote down Kunpeng's experience and the consequences he suffered, advising all players with ill intentions to cherish themselves.
When Yuan Yi finally closed the interface, he didn't forget to drag the Five Elements Origin Rewards that he had set up earlier to the top.
As the planner, she had naturally noticed Kunpeng's illegal operations long ago, but with the mindset of playing the long game, she simply reduced the proportion of Kunpeng's posting privileges and set the items that Kunpeng publicly sold to be unavailable for purchase.
To facilitate Kunpeng's money laundering in private, it's best to seize all of Kunpeng's and his subordinate demons' accounts in one fell swoop, and ideally, to create enough karmic entanglements so that she can convince the Heavenly Dao to have a legitimate reason to take Kunpeng's life with a thunderous strike.
Unexpectedly, Kunpeng was far too greedy. Not only did he deceive Donghuang Taiyi outside the game, but he was also reported by Houtu, one of the Twelve Ancestral Witches. Houtu, who communicated with heaven and earth, not only activated the report button in the game, but also, relying on her status as a descendant of Pangu, directly reported Kunpeng's crimes to the Heavenly Dao.
Normally, the Heavenly Dao wouldn't interfere with minor squabbles among cultivators in the primordial world, but the "Three Thousand Guests of the Purple Cloud" is a key project in the operation of the Heavenly Dao right now, and it cannot tolerate him doing evil.
Yuan Yi sent several effective measures to Dao Zu on how to strengthen game control, and immediately demonstrated the remarkable results of his practice. Only after receiving a very good evaluation did Yuan Yi exit the game background.
It's a pity. Originally, Yuan Yi wanted to make Kunpeng's hoarding of goods during the event a complete failure, since the money he earned at the beginning would be completely consumed in the hoarding of the Water Origin later.
When your wallet is emptied with one click, your game data is wiped to zero, you're burdened with hundreds of millions in debt, and you even have to repay your debts with your own body because of the overwhelming karmic consequences, even a roc like Kunpeng would probably taste the bitterness of regret.
After all, it's better to be safe than sorry. Before Kunpeng is dealt with, she certainly wouldn't feel comfortable letting her brother Hongyun travel alone.
However, now that Heaven has intervened, Kunpeng's fate is not much better. He only barely survives because he attaches himself to Dijun. When the great calamity is about to begin, Kunpeng, who is hated by Heaven, will naturally not be able to escape.
Yuan Yi had already decided on Kunpeng's fate, so he simply stopped thinking about it and waited to push things along at the crucial moment.
After all, she was just a small ginseng fruit tree and a small ley line. Her position was the chief planner of the Primordial World game, and she already had enough to do on a daily basis.
She opened the homepage of the player who reported the game, sent a game gift pack to the first player who discovered and used the reporting function, and thanked the player for the report. As for the minor bugs or troubles caused by other random players in the game, Yuan Yi relied on the formation to handle them with a single click.
The routine maintenance for this older game has been taken care of.
The sun had just risen, and the ginseng fruit tree, which was already golden-red, had now turned completely golden.
But Zhen Yuanzi frowned and picked out several withered leaves from among the golden leaves, plucking them off one by one with decisive efficiency.
Some of these leaves are already dried red, while others have turned completely black and curled up into a ball, showing no signs of the ginseng fruit tree's vibrant life. Staying on the tree will only pollute it, so it's better to pick them as soon as possible.
Zhen Yuanzi handed the handful of withered leaves to Yuan Yi with an unfriendly expression.
Yuan Yi sensed something was wrong, so he immediately laughed it off: "That's normal. When making games, everyone loses hair!"
Yuan Yi opened both eyes wide and gazed earnestly into his elder brother's phoenix eyes, seemingly trying to move Zhen Yuanzi with his sincerity.
"Hmph!" Zhen Yuanzi used magic to bury the leaf in his hand into the ground, still trying to deceive him.
“Since your birth, I have gone into seclusion once, and you have caused a stir. Compared to your previous resurrection and running away from home, the sins and karma that have tainted your physical body are nothing now.” Zhen Yuanzi sat down with his knees supporting his body, while Yuan Yi, who was already sitting, dared not move.
With the Heavenly Dao above, her ginseng fruit tree has at least tens of thousands of leaves, each of which has been nourished by the merits of the Heavenly Dao and the faith of living beings. Now, her brother has pointed out five or six leaves that are not quite right from among so many leaves, completely disregarding the fact that the leaves on one side are big, round, and beautiful, and even uses this to question him.
This is a generalization, this is double standards. Yuan Yi protested loudly in her heart, but dared not say it out loud, after all, she could indeed easily hide the leaf.
"It's nothing serious, just some minor issues with the game running." Yuan Yi still didn't want his brother to worry.
"Aside from the matter of Kunpeng, because of the operation of the game, many unintelligent monsters in the world have also gained intelligence as they have cultivated."
"Among them are good and bad, kind and evil, some are devoted to the Way, while others cannot control their animalistic nature and commit evil deeds. This cause originated from me, and I should naturally share in these causes and effects."
Yuan Yi opened the player list, which contained millions of new players. Many of them had awakened their consciousness after the game launched, and one-fifth of them already had negative merit points.
"In fact, the teachings on the Dao in the game are quite comprehensive. With Kong Xuan guiding them, only one in ten million would truly go astray. However, once they gain intelligence, they will naturally want a better place to live. Resources in the prehistoric world are ultimately limited, so some disputes are inevitable."
Yuan Yi glossed over these matters, but she couldn't hide them from Zhen Yuanzi, who had watched her grow up. He said with certainty, "You expected this a long time ago."
Yuan Yi remained silent. Indeed, the large-scale awakening of spiritual intelligence was also part of her plan.
"Humans... after all, more spirit beasts mean greater strength." Yuan Yi wanted to skip the topic. "With more players, the game can operate in the long term and more parts can be developed."
His words revealed him to be a true game enthusiast, to which Zhen Yuanzi could only shake his head.
“When I emerged from seclusion this time, I sensed that the world was in chaos and the secrets of heaven were no longer clear.” Zhen Yuanzi shook his head. The last time such a situation occurred was during the Dragon and Phoenix Calamity. “Your game is too deeply involved. Now that you are no longer in danger, you might as well put it down and go into seclusion for a while.”
The great calamity of the dragon and phoenix has only just passed, and the heavenly secrets are already in disarray again so quickly. The frequent occurrence of great calamities in the world will surely lead to a great disaster.
Such a serious matter required getting his sister out of this karmic entanglement as soon as possible. Zhen Yuanzi made up his mind to try his best to persuade his sister to change her mind, give up the game, and focus on her cultivation.
Yuan Yi knew that her brother was worried about her, but she refused: "Brother, you don't need to worry. I know what I'm doing, and this is my choice."
"Accelerating all changes and settling things down as soon as possible is a good option."
He had watched Yuan Yi grow up, and he had always been the one who understood his sister the most, but now even he couldn't quite figure her out.
Although Yuan Yi's expression remained unchanged, his eyes held the same unwavering determination as when he first created the game.
Yuan Yi grasped her brother's hand as if she were a newborn: "I want everyone to be able to live a good life." Whether it was her brother or her brother Hongyun.
Now, Zhunti and Jieyin are trapped in the gacha pool of opportunities, Kunpeng is still being targeted by the Heavenly Dao and has also formed a deadly feud with the Wu Clan. Soon he will be dragged into a new calamity and has no time to care about other things. Brother Hongyun's death calamity has passed.
But that wasn't enough. Yuan Yi counted them off on her fingers: her brother, Tongtian, Yuanshi, Nuwa, Hongjun... The friends and relatives she had made in the prehistoric world all met with less than good ends.
Either they were residing far away in the heavens, or their disciples were scattered, resulting in total defeat. Even the elder brother, who seemed to have the most fulfilling life in the Journey to the West, could only watch helplessly as Sun Wukong swung his staff and broke the ginseng fruit tree, all due to the arrangements made by the West.
Even if she loses a single leaf, her brother is filled with worry. His entire body is battered and bruised, with the roots torn out. How painful that must be!
Yuan Yi gripped Zhen Yuanzi's hand tightly: "Since I've come into this world, I will definitely protect you all." He would never again stand by and watch his brothers repeat the same mistakes.
Zhen Yuanzi was speechless for a moment. As a top-tier Golden Immortal of the Primordial World, how could he possibly need the protection of a weak younger sister? But his sister's innocent heart softened his heart like a flower petal.
Well, he'll keep a close eye on her and make sure nothing happens to her.
However, he still offered a verbal reminder: "Whatever you do, cherish yourself and don't get into danger."
Yuan Yi nodded obediently: "I don't usually leave Wuzhuang Temple. I just play some games in the temple. Nothing will happen."
"This is the proposal for the new event that will be starting soon. You can take a look at it first, brother."
After a while, even Zhen Yuanzi, who doted on his younger sister, couldn't help but speak tactfully: "You shouldn't leave the temple these days. I'll go and reinforce the Wuzhuang Temple's formation."
